However, the Premier League situation is far more salvageable. Chelsea are currently third on 24 points, three behind Manchester United and four behind Manchester City, who they play at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

Success shortens the memory and should a revitalized Torres suddenly start banging in the goals at one end and Chelsea’s defense and stiffened midfield stop leaking them at the other, Benitez will be the toast of west London.
